Social Sciences

Springer Nature has a long and proud tradition of publishing in the social sciences through its imprints Palgrave Macmillan and Springer. Since the 19th century we have been publishing not only across the core social sciences but also ensuring we are at the cutting edge of new or evolving subject areas such as sustainability, gender and sexuality studies or social implications of neuroscience and AI.

The books in this collection are of interest to academics and professionals in the social sciences and many related fields including sustainability, population studies, sociolinguistics, gender and sexuality, migration, health, well-being and family studies.
